Preparazione

• 1

  If you’re tired of the usual ham and butter sandwiches, this recipe will change your lunch game.

  This gourmet Burrata & Beef Carpaccio sandwich combines creamy fresh cheese with delicate carpaccio for a luxurious yet simple meal.

  Perfect for an elevated lunch break or a light dinner, it showcases the freshness and quality of authentic Italian ingredients

• 2

  Take two slices of bread and top one side with grated Mozzarella Cucina.

  Bake at 180°C until the cheese melts.

  Toast the remaining two slices either in the oven or the toaster — just enough for a crispy texture, without burning

• Rub the slices with a halved garlic clove, then spray or brush with extra virgin olive oil before toasting to create homemade bruschetta style bread

• 3

  Generously spread pesto onto the toasted bread slices without mozzarella.

  If the pesto flavor is a bit strong for your liking, mix it with Ricotta to make it milder and creamier

• 4

  Lay the beef carpaccio slices on the pesto coated bread. Add the sliced tomatoes on top.

  Cut the Galbani Burrata in half and gently place it over the carpaccio.

  In a bowl, toss together:

  • chopped arugula

  • fresh basil

  • grated Parmesan

  • a drizzle of olive oil

  • a splash of balsamic vinegar

  • salt & pepper

  Mix well.

  Optional additions: chopped olives, sliced cucumber, or a touch of crushed garlic

• 5

  Once the salad mix is well coated, place it onto the sandwiches. Close each sandwich with the mozzarella topped slice of bread. Your Italian Burrata & Carpaccio sandwiches are ready to enjoy — buon appetito!

• Extra summer tip: a squeeze of fresh lemon juice on the arugula boosts freshness and brightens the entire sandwich

• • Vegetarian option: replace the beef carpaccio with thin slices of grilled eggplant or zucchini.

  • Fish version: use smoked salmon instead of carpaccio.

  • Protein twist: add slices of hard boiled egg.

  • Italian charcuterie version: swap carpaccio for Parma ham or another Italian deli meat.

  • Larger servings: simply add extra bread slices to turn it into 3–4 sandwiches instead of 2.
